It is very demeaning, foolish and unreasonable for people to actually think that about a Tiv man.

But i want to make it clear for anyone who will want to come to Tiv land for such expedition to please for the peace of the family he travelled and left behind that he should please write his will before living home. It is very important.

A Tiv man doesn't play with his WIFE and food. Going close to a Tiv man's wife when he is fully aware is like talking badly against Mohammed when you're a Christian in Sokoto or Katsina or Jigawa State. You know the result.

A Tiv man DOES NOT give out his wife as souvenir to visitors. You will DIE!

Are you sure the tiv tribe didn't practice this act during their primitive era?

I've been hearing this since I was a kid, and a tiv friend of mine wen i was in school told us that they practiced it b4 but not anymore. He said they've stopped it.

So maybe you should investigate properly.

pocohantas:
No sensible person should believe such story.
Just like the story of Ngwa people eating humans. Sounds ludicrous.

Wen we asked a tiv friend about this same issue back then in school he said they practiced it back then but not anymore.


So I think they practiced it but not anymore.

LadyRosa:


It's an age-long practice and so, TIV men at a point did these things. Whether it practised to date? May not be possible but maybe, TIV men in their reasonable majority do not value their women that much. Unlike the Idomas and igboid groups, which share boundaries, TIV does not have a culture against infidelity so TIV married women sleep with men like breathe to the nose, and it's a habit their men taught them right and well.


It's affecting genuine well brought up TIV girls. Twice I tried to match some good ones with clients looking to settle down, but they rejected them outright on hearing they are TIVS.

Its far easier to see TIV married women in local meat joints drinking and eating meat with men than any other Nigerian tribe.

Exactly.



But your profile funny sha.

Clearing the air

Weretuntun:
WHY DID YOU GUYS CHANGE THE CULTURE WHEN IS MY TURN,ANYWHERE I HEAD THAT TIV ARE VERY FRIENDLY. AND WILL BE COMING TO EXPLORE THE PLEASURE . NOTHING SWEET PASS bleeping A MARRIED WIFE

U are laying curses on yourself. Paradventure, you have been doing it before, it is time to desist from it.

Mrfeel:


I read it , and I will tell you it doesn't exist , Tiv people have similar tradition which is called SWENDE it's a kind of tragic misfortune that comes upon a man if he sleeps with another man's wife , in idoma the effect is on the woman but amongst the Tiv it's on the man but still Tiv men still sleep with other men's wives it doesn't work , the SWENDE also comes upon siblings who sleep with each other even if they did it while they were little children if will affect them as adults unless they pass through ritual cleansing , Anande which simply means to burn them , they will be locked up in a tatch house naked and the Tiv priest will perform the ritual and set fire to the tatch house they will break free from the house and run outside naked swearing we are no longer siblings and I will never have anything to do with you

Thanks for this piece of information.

There is no smoke without fire. I am a living witness to this culture of tiv entertaining guests with their wives. In 2015, I and two of my colleagues in the office went to a village close to gboko for a wedding. The grooms uncle and his brothers sent thdir wives to sleep with us. We were giving separate huts to sleep earlier. Oh boy we kna k kpekus tire

In the old in days, if a tiv man has a guest that is handsome, he will give out his wife to sleep with the guest, so that his wife will born a handsome child. I don't know if it is still practised now sha.

Abeg someone should visit me

I have a beautiful wife

Enemyofpeace:
they offered them to me

In your dreams

but Ngwa people did eat humans in the past nah

One someone spends so much energy denying a thing, I can sense there is usually some truth there.

I first heard this rumour 30yrs ago so why is it now that noise is being made?

I can bet that this practice existed in previous generations but intead of you people to say "things have changed", you are denying it strenuously.

Oga, Go and sit down

To day is the first day I'm hearing about their umbrella

Jesuschristus:
Just tell us you have stopped,case closed

Hahaha

Bulldozer90:
everyone knows it's true.

Hmmmmm nawa ooo

FalseProphet1:

They do give out their wives to visitors, although it was an age long practice. But they used to do it in the past.

Brainless ediot, can you drop evidence to support your lies?

Well,your father happened to be your mom's elder brother... how about that?

https://thenationonlineng.net/tiv-umbrella-body-heads-to-court-over-claim-they-entertain-guests-with-wives/
Incorporated Trustees of Mzough U Tiv, an umbrella body for Tiv nationalities worldwide, has instituted a suit against the Tiv Area Traditional Council (TATC) over alleged cultural practice by the Tiv tribe.
The allegation borders on claims that the Tiv man entertains his stranger with his wife.

Yeye tribe, TIV tradition have many things to defend.
80% of TIV people are not good character people. I can defend this my claim anywhere.
Thank God they're now trooping out from their enclaves to mix with sane people in other part of Nigeria. They're very backward retards.
Its better to adopt them as slaves than making them a friend. Though, now that they're leaving their dead state with no physical development, their new generation will be much more better after mixing and marrying other tribes.
The Responsible Ministry should as a matter of urgency, ban TIV from marrying themselves. Or in a family of 4, 3 MUST marry from other tribe.In order to purge or extinct their extremely bad character.
They're very greedy and very selfish tribe. Quote me anywhere.

People don't know that tribe that's why some of them have the guts to come social media.
I swear, if you go close to a TIV, you will be surprise on how uncultured they're. They're very primitive till date. Those that are speaking out are not in any of their state (Benue). They're the ones that have mix up with other tribes in other states or countries.

crossfm:
Hehehe.

These Tiv people really fall my hand. We all know that such accusation is false,why make their claims relevant.

The Tiv people have a more pressing issue, which is how to stop the killings in their area.

The genocide going on there should be their priority,not this. A man whose house is on fire don't go about chasing rat.

Aswear, I no just understand those people

I don't know how true this is, but what I do know is that they like Bleep pass anything

oluwaseunamos33:
Na mumu dey worry you pple. Na everything dem dey carry go court?

Lolz, but make them wait ooo, what if court rule otherwise??

Meaning it will now be established and compulsory for TIV to continue using Thier wife's legally for entertainment ?...then We die there .. 😂

But many of their women dey easily dish out toto to any willing man shamelessly.
One guy told me that sex to a Tiv woman is just like a handshake.
They see nothing wrong in fucking around, that's why most of them are into prostitution

Did this really happened or you just wanna catch cruise?

Mrfeel:

Which age long practice that the Tiv elders themselves don't know but you who is not even a tiv person know?

Bro, Tiv girls/ women of even 50 something years full brothels for Abuja, Nasarawa, Taraba, Kaduna, Kano, Gombe, Plateau state, Enugu (Obollor Afor, 9th mile, Nsukka & Enugu city) etc dey sell their toto for as cheap as 1k.
Even many of their married women dey collect preek outside with little inducement.
I once heard from a senior boss, how some Tiv men allow their wives to Bleep Fulani men just to get money for the family

I think only Igbo ladies come close to them in terms of prostitution in Nigeria.
Tiv women's own is even worse because they can easily Bleep without protection & can give you freely, which Igbo girls will never do unless with money

I don't want to debate about prostitution,

The topic of this discussion is about a cultural practice amongst Tiv men giving out their wives to visitors , I repeat it's a big lie such does not exist amongst the Tiv people, and whoever your boss is , he is a lair.
